PUSHING CONGRESS President Coolidge has thus far shown a nice discrimina- tion between the ideas of the “big stick’’ in compelling Con- ss to do the bidding of the White House and in using influence where it may be desirable and _nece erystalize opinion in the legislative branch. The Pr has on more than one occasion re rmed his allegiance to the constitutional respect demanded for the coordinate branches of the government — legislative, judicial and executive. : At the present time he is moving to accelerate legisla- tion, which has been virtually suspended as a result of the numerous investigations being conducted in Congress, taking | the time of members. He has not in a stentorian manner a program and demanded that Congress do his bid- | instead sought conferences with the leaders of branches during which plans may be discussed which | ef executive hopes will eventuate in constructive leg- | islation. The President, too, has not hesitated to make known | frequently to Congress his views on various measures and to suggest that action be taken. He did this with respect | to the Norbeck-Burtness bill for livestock loans and he has| done it with other measures of importance to agriculture of the Northwest in which time is an important factor. ANOTHER CUP, PLEASE!” Can Americans be induced to make tea their national} drink instead of coffee? British tea exporters think there} is a fighting cha They will conduct a big advertising campaign in America. The English use an average of nine pounds of tea a year apiece. In our country, less than a pound a year. We are a nation of coffee drinkers, consuming more than 12 pounds of coffee a year for every man, woman and child. This is almost a half more than in 1914. What caused the in- crease? Prohibition, largely. Such is the generally accepted explanation. . A pound of coffee, properly percolated, and made ong.” yields 40 cups of beverage. The year’s total is an! average of 480 cups of strong coffee—more cups where the drink is weaker. Even at that, we’re not the greatest coffee-drinking nation. Sweden tops the list, Cuba second, America third. } The Chinese drink less coffee than any other people, averag- | ing a pound a year for every 100 people. Like the English.

Twent No doubt, bribery ia they are tea drinkers. The American people spend over a million dollars a day for coffee. The milk and cream used in our coffee takes the entire yield of three million cows Coffee has been used as a beverage for more than 1000 years. Louis XIV is supposed to have drunk the first cup of it ever made in France. At that time, coffee sold for $29 a pound. The price may seem unbelievable now. There are teas, however, that cost even more. Sixty dollars a pound is what you'll have to pay for a pound of Bak Woon (White Cloud) tea from China. It tastes weak. As the British develop their advertising campaign to in- duce Americans to drink more tea and less coffee, there’ll be much discussion about the relative merits and injuriousness of the two. | The average pound of coffee contains 85 grains of’ caff-' eine. A cup of strong black coffee often has from two to five grains of caffeine. But, for that matter, there is opium in lettuce. Yes, and the equivalent of alcohol in candy and all other forms of sugar. And tea contains the powerful drug, theine, similar to caffeine, In a general way, the English seem to get about the same effect from a cup of tea that Americans get from coffee. In excess, either one is harmful to the health of the average person. It’s a matter of taste—and so far Americans have voted 12 to 1 for coffee and against tea. Will advertising shift that preference? That will be answered later. T. B. Tuberculosis costs the United States 500 million dollars a year, according to the Anti-Tuberculosis League. It arrives at this figure by estimating that each year of the average person’s life is worth $100 in the form of national wealth. Thus a person, who dies five years prematurely, means a loss of $500 to national wealth. ! Surely we are worth more than $100 a year apiece to the tion. But even that low figure means a loss of half a billion dollars a year. If men had even mild intelligence, they would stop fighting each other and concentrate on the common enemy, disease. The money spent on the World War would, devoted to scientific research and health meas- | ures, eliminate nearly every disease now known. vee OUTLOOK GOOD Pig iron production continued rising in February, it’s; announced. The output was nearly twice as big as February, | 1922. This means that the steel industry expects lots of customers and heavy orders—which, in turn, means jobs. Railroad freight traffic continues big for this time of year. The banking situation is strong. Retail trade is @ bit quiet in some lines, but indications ! are for a brisk spring pick-up. People have plepty of money and credit to keep things- going in good shape. This is shown by the manufacturé of 349,141 motor vehicles in Feb- ruary, a gain of more than a fourth over the previous Feb- ruary record, in 1923.

ADVENTURE OF THE TWINS BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON All the Doofunny people were go- ing to see the Humpty-Dumpty Cir- cus and asked the Twins to go along. So off they went with Mister Fuzz Wuzz at half past 12, to get good The China Pig with back took the pennies as you passed in, and by the time half of the Doo- funny Landers were inside he was so full he couldn’t move, and had to ask Sambo, the black boy in the side show, to help him. Sambo had a long red tongue and when you put your penny on it, she rolled his eyes and opened — his mouth wide and the penny rolled right down his throat. Someone whispered that Sambo had been a bank before he went into the side show business, but I don’t know whether it is true or not. Anyway he, too, was so stuffed with money that Mister Fuzz Wuzz had to take a serew driver and take off his head and then turn him up side down to let the money roll out. As for the pig, he couldn't be un- screwed and there he was—not able a slot in his jto move a muscle. “There is only one way to get any money out of him,” said Mister Fuzz | Wuzz, “and that’s to break him into pieces.” “Oh, don’t please!” begged the China Pig. “I had an uncle once who was broken into pieces, and although he was glued together again, he nev- er was able to.eat a full meal after- wards, and never, never, never could be washed.” ‘ “I shouldn't, think a pig would ware about that,” laughed Nancy, but seeing the offended look in the pig’s eyes sM added hastily, “I'm sure we'll find another way, Mister Pig.” Well, sir, there it was—time for the show to begin and that pig hold- ing up everything! You'll never guess who came along in the nick of time and helped them out of their trouble!

He soon had the poor pig as empty as a drum. “Thank you, kind sir, you aved my life,” grunted the pig. “Don't mention it,” exclaimed the other, “Nothing at all!
